Introducing personal finance software tailored for Canadian Mac Users, expanded investing features with Quicken Deluxe

MENLO PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Quicken Inc. announces the expansion of its Canadian product line with the 2018 release of Quicken Canada. For the very first time, the company introduces Quicken Canada for Mac, offering two new product offerings to Canadian Mac users, Quicken Starter and Quicken Deluxe. The company has also introduced an expanded Windows lineup with Quicken Deluxe for Windows. These new offerings are part of the Quicken membership program, that eliminates the headache of annual upgrades by providing automatic access to the latest, most improved versions of Quicken.

Expanded Mac capabilities

After receiving many requests for a Canadian version of the popular Quicken for Mac product, Quicken now offers two tiers of products designed for Mac users: Quicken Starter and Quicken Deluxe. In addition to localization for Canadian currency and investing, Quicken Starter is designed to help people manage their household budget and gain control over their finances. For households managing investments or keeping track of more complex finances, Quicken Deluxe is now available. Quicken for Mac now includes expanded investment capabilities with a highly customizable portfolio view and new loan tracking features including “what-if” loan analysis.

New features for Windows

All Quicken Windows offerings now feature improvements requested by members: new report formatting, customization options, and direct report export to Excel spreadsheets. For Home & Business for Windows members, there is an enhanced investment performance analysis and simplified emailing of invoices available.

“We continuously listen to customer feedback and the 2018 releases of Quicken reflect a balance of new features and refinements to existing capabilities that our users have requested,” said Eric Dunn, chief executive officer of Quicken. “With our latest products, Mac offerings are more robust, our interfaces are more intuitive, and our new membership program ensures that customers always have the latest and greatest Quicken without the pain of manually upgrading.”

Membership program

Since January 2017, Quicken has been offered to Canadian customers on a membership basis. Rather than purchase upgrades every year, customers automatically continue to receive the latest version of Quicken as long as they maintain their membership. In addition, Home & Business members will receive free access to Quicken Premium Care. All memberships include the Quicken Data Access Guarantee, ensuring users will always have access to their data.

Dropbox

Users of all new versions of Quicken will receive an additional 5GB of Dropbox storage for backup and retrieval of their Quicken data through an exclusive partnership with the leading cloud storage provider.
